      Joe Joyce wins the WBO ‘interim’ heavyweight title
      Joyce, who turned 37 on Monday is an infamously slow starter, was not at the races early again in Manchester.
      The Samoan was whacking away at the Londoner’s ribs as much as he could but Joyce has freakish resilience.

      ‘Let’s make the fight happen’ – Watch Jake Paul and Tommy Fury agree to reschedule celeb grudge match for THIRD time

      by

      JAKE PAUL and Tommy Fury agreed to reschedule their grudge match for a THIRD time. Paul-promoted women’s champion Amanda Serrano was in action defending her featherweight titles against Sarah Mahfoud in Manchester on Saturday night.
      Jake Paul and Tommy Fury agreed to reschedule their grudge match for a third time
      And Fury was in attendance at the AO Arena to support his training partner Joseph Parker, headlining against Joe Joyce.
      The Love Islander visited Serrano and Paul’s manager Nakisa Bidarian in their changing room.
      And it was there where Fury called the YouTuber-turned-boxer on FaceTime to finally get their fight on.
      Paul, 25, was heard saying: “Tommy, lets make the fight happen buddy. Let’s make it happen.”

      Fury, 23, responded: “I’ll see you soon.”
      The pair of celebrity fighting rivals first signed to fight in December 2021.
      At the time, Paul had beaten fellow YouTuber “AnEsonGib”, ex-NBA star Nate Robinson as well as former UFC pair Ben Askren and Tyron Woodley.
      But Fury pulled out of the bout after suffering a broken rib in training with Woodley replacing him for a rematch, losing by knockout.

      The pair then tried again this August, but the British light-heavyweight was withdrawn amid a US visa issue.
      Paul now returns on October 29 in Arizona against UFC legend Anderson Silva, 47.
      The Brazilian will be his first opponent with a prior boxing record having had four wins and one loss in the ring.
      Fury is yet to return since beating Daniel Bocianski in April.

      Boxer Nathan Heaney suffers horror cut above eye after headbutt on undercard of Joe Joyce vs Joseph Parker

      by

      NATHAN HEANEY suffered a HORROR eye cut in his title fight with Jack Flatley… but emerged victorious on the premature scorecards. The middleweight had helped pack out the Manchester Arena with Potters fans but they were gutted the action ended prematurely.

      And they were anxious about their man suffering his first pro defeat when they had to wait for the scorecards.
      After pretty even action, an accidental clash of heads opened up a grizzly deep wound above Heaney’s right eye and the ringside doctor advised referee Steve Gray to wave off the bout.
      And the judges scorecards after the five rounds read 49-46, 49-46 and 50-45, handing him his 16th pro win.
      Heaney’s team managed to stem the flow of blood but he’s certain to need stitches on the horrible wound.

      And hopefully the injury does not delay the making of his dream fight at the Bet365 stadium further down the line.
      Former heavyweight champion David Haye accused Flatley of trying to deliberately sink his head into Heaney.
      Haye said: “Flatley led with his head.
      “He came in with his head, I can’t say he was trying to headbutt him but his body language was moving over his head over his front foot.

      “He leads in, he jumps in with it, I don’t think he looked like he was trying to land a jab.
      “That to me looked like he tried to headbutt him. Personally. That’s how it looked to me.”
      The bout was part of the undercard ahead of Joe Joyce’s heavyweight fight with Joseph Parker.

      Jake Paul being sued by Eddie Hearn for £92MILLION after accusing Matchroom of bribing judge for Joshua vs Usyk rematch

      by

      JAKE PAUL is being sued by Eddie Hearn for damages in “excess of £92MILLION” after claiming the promoter “paid” a judge to score fights in favour of his fighters.The YouTuber-turned-boxer accused Hearn of having American judge Glenn Feldman on the Matchroom Boxing payroll following his scoring of Katie Taylor and Anthony Joshua’s respective clashes with Amanda Serrano and Oleksandr Usyk.

      Paul’s allegation has prompted a lawsuit from Hearn and Matchroom BoxingCredit: SPORTSFILE
      And the allegation has prompted Hearn to take legal action against the social media superstar.
      Matchroom have sued the younger Paul brother for making an “outrageously false and baseless allegation” that has damaged their reputation.
      Hearn is suing The Problem Child for defamation and damages upwards of £92m ($100m) for the “outlandishly false” accusation made in an interview earlier this month.
      Matchroom Attorney Frank Salzano said: “Both legally and ethically there is a clear line separating opinion from defamatory lies.

      “Jake Paul knows that, and he purposely crossed that line when he wrongly accused Matchroom Boxing and Eddie Hearn of fixing fights.
      “Nonetheless he was still given an opportunity to retract his defamatory statements and refused to.
      “Now he will face the legal consequences of his actions as Matchroom and Mr. Hearn will be seeking damages in well excess of $100 million given the value and goodwill attached to the Matchroom business and the harmful nature of Mr. Paul’s comments.”
      Paul, 25, has found himself in legal hot water for saying: “Glenn Feldman shows up in Saudi and scores Anthony Joshua to win the fight when everyone who watched the fight said it was not a split decision.

      “Clearly, this guy is getting paid money by Matchroom Boxing.”
      Former Disney star Paul was quick to acknowledge the gravity of the accusation he levelled at British boxing supremo Hearn.
      He said” [It’s] a bold statement and an accusation that I don’t take likely, but it’s just blatantly obvious. And they’re not even trying to hide it.”
      Video footage of Paul’s allegation was also submitted by Matchroom lawyer Salzano.
      Hearn, 43, revealed earlier this week that he was planning to take legal action against Paul for his comments.
      He said: “What he said in terms of his allegations of corruption with Glen Feldman is totally unacceptable.
      “We all have a laugh with Jake and he’s an average fighter but I’m telling you now, what he said is unacceptable and it will be dealt with because we take this sport, our values as a family seriously and we love the sport of boxing.
      “So, for him to come out with idiotic comments without even thinking of what he said is extremely harmful to me and very disrespectful to us as a business and as a family.”
      He added: “Jake’s comments will be dealt with appropriately.
      “I’m not prepared, as I would be on many occasions, to take what he is saying with a pinch of salt on this occasion because it’s bang out of order and totally disrespectful to the sport of boxing and to me and us.

      “I take it extremely personally because they’re questioning our credentials, they are questioning our integrity and I won’t have it.
      “So, he’s going to have to take the brunt of that. Maybe he doesn’t care, but I do.”
      SunSport has contacted Jake Paul’s representatives for comment.

      But the undefeated Morecambe giant will not wait around any longer for the London 2012 golden boy to return the signed contract that was sent last Friday.
      Ringside in Manchester for Joe Joyce’s heavyweight clash with Joseph Parker on Saturday night, Fury said: “I was optimistic about three weeks ago but it shouldn’t be taking this long to sign a contract.
      “We will know by Monday anyway because if it is not done by Monday then I’m moving on.

      “He’s lucky that I’m giving him a world title shot but I don’t mind chucking him a bone but I don’t want them to start dictating s*** to me.”
      Fury has his fights broadcast on BT Sport and ESPN in America but AJ recently penned an exclusive deal with streaming app DAZN.
      The TV channel remains one of the final stumbling blocks that could potentially scupper the fight but both sides are willing to negotiate a plan.
      But Fury insists Joshua, who suffered a second successive defeat to Oleksandr Usyk on August 20 says his rival is in no position to make demands.

      But Usyk refused to rush into another training camp – especially with his country still being invaded by Russia – and has ruled himself out until 2023.

      Promoter George Warren remarked: “We need to be getting contracts signed next week.
      “I don’t think that’s difficult. If everyone wants to make it, it can be done and I believe the other side wants to make it.

      “My dad Frank and Eddie Hearn have gone on record to say 90-95 per cent of it’s been agreed.
      “There are parts of contracts need to be refined and negotiated — tickets and hotel rooms — the biggest thing is the broadcast but it should not slow down the contract.”
